Stockholm Flight Academy

This program is tailormade for the motivated and self-disciplined future pilots. In the end of this course you will be ready to step in a JET AIRLINER as B737NG/A320
[+]

Welcome
To the beginning of your journey...
Stockholm Flight Academy started as a project 2013 by a dedicated team of aviation professionals such as Airline Pilots, Instructors and other essential personnel. Since then the academy has grown into a fully functional EASA Approved Training Organization. We have a large variety of different experiences and that, we believe, is the key to a successful organization.
SFA is today mainly based at Stockholm Västerås Airport. Other training centers include Stockholm Arlanda Airport.
We’re pleased to offer high standard student accommodation in connection to the training center. We can offer shared accommodation to fully furnished one-bedroom apartments.
All-inclusive is a common term in our organization. One of our key principles is to assist the student with all the necessary arrangements outside the training itself. Why? So the student can focus on what really matters: the flight training.
Contact us and we’d be happy to tell you more about our academy and why we should be your first choice.
AIRLINE TRANSPORT PILOT
From zero to frozen ATPL license.
This is a fulltime program that takes you from 0 flight hours until you receive your own frozen ATPL, which is what you need to fly for an airline. Our program also includes Jet Orientation Course (JOC), Multi Crew Cooperation (MCC) and Airline Prep Course (APC). After completion of the program, you are then eligible to apply for a position at an airline.
Pre-Entry Requirements:
Medical Class 1
English level B

SFA Pilot Assessment
SFA Pilot Assessment is our main tool in the admission process. It is comprised of several tests including, General Knowledge, Mathematics, Physics, English and Aptitude. This assessment is a product developed by aviation experts, psychologists and behavioral scientists. The Assessment takes one day to complete and starts with theoretical exams and finishes with an Aptitude test. The results will be given on the same day.
Once you have applied for a training slot at our academy, we will give you the necessary information required to prepare for our Pilot Assessment.
An important note regarding our assessment is unlike other tools ours is not based on a “pass/no-pass” test result. The feedback will be thorough. Should you lack the Pre-Entry requirements, we will offer you the training required to reach our satisfactory standard.

For a successful licensed mechanic
PART 66 BASIC TRAINING
Being a Licensed Mechanic is a highly skilled and responsible job, and it takes two years of theoretical studies and two more years of practical experience in a maintenance organisation, in order to be eligible for obtaining the licence. Even this is just the beginning for most Licensed Mechanics, who does more study, gains more experience toward specialising in aircraft types and therefore is most likely to work at such a position.
Training courses can start any time, but candidates cannot apply for a license until the age of 18. Training includes both theoretical and practical parts, followed by examinations and practical assessments.
The candidates must be able to read, write and communicate to an understandable level in English language in which almost all the technical documentation and procedures necessary to support the issue of the certificate of release to service are written.
Categories of Aircraft Mechanics
Licensed Aircraft Mechanics are divided into the following main categories according to European Aviation Legislation:
Category A. A category A aircraft maintenance license permits the holder to issue certificates of release to service following minor scheduled line maintenance and simple defect rectification tasks.
Category B1. A category B1 aircraft maintenance license permits the holder to issue certificates of release to service following any scheduled and unscheduled maintenance (line, base, modifications) and defect rectification tasks performed on aircraft structure, power plant, mechanical, electrical, limited on avionic systems. This license applies for airplane turbine, airplane piston, helicopter turbine and helicopter piston.
The category B1 License includes the corresponding A category.
Category B2. This is when the candidate decides to follow and attend the course which will provide him/her with technical knowledge in avionics skills. A category B2 maintenance license permits the holder to issue certificates of release to service following any scheduled and unscheduled maintenance (line, base, modifications) and defect rectification tasks performed on aircraft avionics systems.
The category B2 License does not include the corresponding A category.
Category B3. Is applicable to piston-engine non-pressurized airplanes of 2000 Kg MTOM and below.
Category C. This is when the candidate decides to follow and attend the relevant course which will provide him/her with technical knowledge sufficient to release aircrafts to service after Base Maintenance.
The main courses provided by Aviatec are EASA Part-66 Cat A, B1 and C for turbine powered engine airplanes as complete module courses including Practical Training in real maintenance environment and at our own workshops.
THE COURSE
The training subjects that a candidate has to attend at Aviatec in order to become a Licensed Aircraft Mechanic are divided into the following modules according to the European Aviation Legislation requirements:
Module 1. Mathematics
Module 2. Physics
Module 3. Electrical Fundamentals
Module 4. Electronic Fundamentals
Module 5. Digital Techniques in Electronic Instrument Systems
Module 6. Materials and Hardware
Module 7. Maintenance Practices
Module 8. Basic Aerodynamics
Module 9. Human Factors
Module 10. Aviation Legislation
Module 11A. Turbine Airplane Aerodynamics, Structures and Systems (for B1.1 only)
Module 12. Helicopter Aerodynamics, Structures and Systems
Module 13. Aircraft Aerodynamics, Structures and Systems (for B2 only)
Module 14 Propulsion (for B2 only)
Module 15. Gas Turbine Engine (for B1.1 only)
Module 17. Propeller (for B1.1 only)
Modules are taught in different levels of knowledge depending on whether the candidate is wishing to follow an A, B1, B2 or C category career.
Upon completion of each module, the candidate has to take an exam in which if successfully passed he/she will be credited accordingly.
The exams have a certain standard of pass grade and each module exam consists of different kind of tests like multi choice questions, essays, practical tests e.t.c.
BASIC PRACTICAL TRAINING WORKSHOPS
Aviatec has established practical workshops in order to comply with the practical training requirements.
The workshops are equipped with machine and sheet metal shop equipment, actual aircraft parts, a real aircraft, a complete turbine engine, test and calibration units and generally anything that will support customer training needs and students’ practical skill built up. Practical training will also be conducted on actual aircrafts.
FURTHER PRACTICAL TRAINING
Aviatec is working closely with maintenance organisations and technological institutions, so we are able to provide the complete one stop practical training shop to meet all EASA legislated training requirements and thus supporting customer’s training needs and students’ practical skill built up.
